Melbourne Vixens will host West Coast Fever, Collingwood Magpies and Queensland Firebirds at the Bendigo Stadium.
Bendigo’s Caitlin Thwaites will return to the court with the Vixens, following a two-year stint with the Magpies.
“This is going to be the first time I step back out in the Vixens dress and to do it in the stadium where I grew up playing is something really special,” Thwaites said.
“Bringing elite netball to regional towns is such a great opportunity not only for us to meet the fans who travel far to see us, but for the young netball players to be able to see what is possible.”
